You need to build a case of evidence before going to either higher powers or a tribunal.
Only when you(or CAB) feel you have a case should you show your hand, up to that point, grin and bear it.
However heres a second choice, you spend far too much time at work to feel so bad about it. Whilst it doesn't stop this sort of behaviour going on I would personally be looking for another job asap. When you are leaving make sure you ask to speak to one of the HR department(or just the big boss if its a small comapny) and make it clear you are leaving because of this behaviour against you. If you have a decent wedge of evidence then threaten them with a claim anyway, even if you don't persue it it could scare the hell out of them and the people responsible will be told to back off in future.
Hope some of this helps

Im with entwisi on this one - great advice i would give hehehehe
Also be VERY careful about walking out of the job even if driven to it as i found once to my cost that, walking out & no other job to go to, leaves you in a bad situation as far as if you had to claim JSA or income support whilst finding another job, as without proof of what you are going through they will turn round & say that you left a job voluntarily & can have half your benefits deducted immediately & trust me you dont get much as it is but half of that is impossible to live on as i found hard way!!!
Speak to the employment adviser at the CAB who will give you all the information as to putting evidence together & procceedures & will help you out if you have a case or put you through to someone who can.
